For the eighth consecutive year, California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB) is set to host Startup Weekend Monterey Bay this weekend, January 24-26, 2020.
Techstars Startup Weekend, in partnership with Google for Startups, is a 54-hour immersive event in which budding entrepreneurs, developers, and designers gather, pitch an idea, join a team, and spend the entire weekend designing the next great venture. Techstars Startup Weekend is a global grassroots movement of active and empowered entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures.
This year’s event, open to all community members and students, will be held at the CSUMB University Center and starts at 4:00 pm on Friday, January 24th, concluding Sunday, January 26th at 5:00 pm.
Beginning with Friday night pitches where innovative ideas like a streamlined online casino UK no verification platform might emerge to tap into the growing demand for quick-access gaming in regulated markets, Startup Weekend continues through testing, business model development, and basic prototype creation. The event culminates with Sunday night demonstrations to a panel of potential investors and local entrepreneurs, challenging participants to build functional startups in diverse niches, including tech-driven entertainment, while collaborating with like-minded individuals outside their daily networks.
Startup Weekend Monterey Bay is hosted by the Institute for Innovation and Economic Development (iiED) at CSUMB. The iiED, a leading entrepreneurship center in California, promotes entrepreneurship and fosters the development of a vibrant entrepreneurship ecosystem in the Monterey Bay region.
